Chapter 216 Wait for me to marry you home
"My dear, do you want to see me?"
The man's doting and low voice was transmitted into Xu Xian's ears through the network cable, making his red earlobes numb and hot, and the voice became much softer.
"I didn't, don't frame me. It was clearly you who called me."
After a pause, she added softly, as if talking to herself, "It's still unclear who misses who!"
The wedding is tomorrow, but they have been married for several months and have lived together for quite some time. However, Xu Xian actually feels a little secretly uneasy.
It is completely the psychological state of a bride who is happy but also uneasy and restless about getting married.
She didn't know where it came from, as if tomorrow's wedding would make everything settled.
Compared to the calmness and confusion when she got the marriage certificate, she is now expectant and excited.
The voice tube was placed close to her red lips, and the sound of her Adam's apple vibrating was recorded in it. Jiang Shibai could hear her mumbling clearly.
He smiled and admitted openly, "Yes, I missed you."
Xu Xian was caught off guard by his sudden teasing and had no idea how to respond.
Suddenly, both sides fell silent at the same time, but the atmosphere was not awkward. There was a sense of enjoying quiet attachment. They listened to each other's shallow breathing and felt very sweet.
After about a few seconds, Jiang Shibai cleared his throat and said solemnly: "Xianxian, we are getting married tomorrow."
"I know." Xu Xian's tone was gentle, his voice full of endless love. These three simple words seemed to be saying 'I love you'.
As soon as he finished speaking, the person on the other side chuckled indulgently.
Xu Xian's cheeks flushed slightly as she sat on the sofa in the bridal room. She could hear a slight sound of wind blowing gently against the dense leaves, making a rustling sound.
"Are you outside?"
She glanced at the time and it was already 10:20 pm.
The wedding is tomorrow, is he going out to play so late at night?
As far as she knew, Du Yuanzhou and Bai Han, the best men, were staying at Repulse Bay tonight. Could it be that they were planning to go out for a bachelor party?
Li Nanyue also mentioned this suggestion tonight, but she was afraid that she would not be able to get out of bed tomorrow morning, so she did not agree.
Under the dim street lights, the warm light lengthened the man's shadow, and the rough sandy road surface outlined the man's tall and superior figure.
Jiang Shibai put one hand in his pocket, wearing a thin white shirt with just the right amount of wrinkles from the wind. He leaned lazily against the car door, and when he heard the words, he looked up at the lighted room on the second floor not far away.
He decorated the bedroom for his wedding himself, so he naturally knew the location.
"Yeah, I'm outside."
Xu Xian sensed something unusual in the man's calm tone, and a strange premonition arose in his heart.
She asked without thinking: "Are you outside the villa?"
"It seems that my good boy knows me very well." There was a hint of smile between Jiang Shibai's lazy brows, his thin lips slightly raised, and his tone was a bit casual and unrestrained.
He hadn't seen her all day, which was fine when he was busy during the day, but when he lay on the marital bed at night, he couldn't help but miss her.
He missed her more than if they hadn't seen each other for a week. He couldn't control his legs at all and drove here alone.
Xu Xian, who had just asked casually, stood up and said with surprise, "Then I'll come out."
Unexpectedly, as Jiang Shixin said, these brothers are exactly the same in some aspects.
Jiang Shibai gazed gently at the second-floor balcony. The bright light from inside the house shone through the glass, but the thin white gauze curtains covered everything, making it hazy and inspiring imagination.
Just standing at the bottom of the building, the close distance can calm his nervousness.
"No, it's unlucky to meet."
"Do you really believe in these customs?" Xu Xian paused as he walked towards the door.
She thought that since he had already arrived at the villa, he would definitely find a way to meet her!
"I believe that as long as it's related to you, no matter if it's feudal superstition or not, I will make sure that no accidents will happen." Jiang Shibai's voice was low, inexplicably giving people a sense of power.
After being in the business world for a long time, I understand that success depends on human effort, not fate.
How could he not know that not seeing each other the day before the wedding was somewhat feudal and superstitious, but he didn't dare to gamble at all, for fear of making a mistake and being doomed.
Xu Xian's heart skipped a beat, and he said softly, "Okay!"
As she spoke, she quietly moved towards the balcony, wanting to open the curtains to take a look at him.
How could someone who shared the bed with her not guess her intentions and thoughts? Jiang Shibai immediately stopped her, "Be good, we'll be patient and don't come to the balcony. We'll meet again tomorrow."
"Wait for me to come and marry you home."
Xu Xian could only give up after hearing this, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
They chatted on the phone for more than an hour at a distance of dozens of meters. At Xu Xian's urging, Jiang Shibai reluctantly hung up the phone.
Xu Xian was like a thief in the room. He tiptoed to the balcony, opened the gauze curtain a tiny gap, and caught a glimpse of the car hidden in the darkness on the road.
It was dim and unclear, with the luxurious car body half in light and shadow, and half shrouded in the thick night.
As if he had guessed that she would definitely peek, Jiang Shibai got into the car after hanging up the phone. Through the car window, he saw a shadow behind the gauze curtain on the second floor. It was her beautiful figure.
He took a photo and sent it to her.
Boss: [(Photo)]
[My dear, be sneaky and don't leave any loopholes. ]
The phone in Xu Xian's palm rang. He paid attention to check it. After zooming in on the photo, he saw the shadow behind the gauze curtain and a black line appeared on his forehead.
It turns out that I can’t beat the old fox in the business world.
Lady Boss: [Don't overthink it, I'm just pulling the curtains. (Tsundere.jpg)]
After sending the message, she decisively pulled the blackout curtains to block out the outside world's view.
Jiang Shibai was at a loss whether to laugh or cry when he saw this, and soon drove away.
After he left, Xu Xian took a shower and lay on the bed to try to fall asleep, but he tossed and turned for more than half an hour and didn't feel like sleeping at all.
I don’t know if it’s because I’m too excited about getting married tomorrow.
Unable to sleep, she didn't force herself and simply got up and went to another room.
Her mother was in good health, and the joy of the wedding made her look more energetic than she had been a few months ago. After being taken to the villa, she fell asleep early in the upstairs room, waiting for the wedding ceremony tomorrow.
She wanted to go over and check what was going on.
When I pushed the door open, the room was pitch black, with only the faint lights flickering from the instruments.
She tiptoed to the bedside and turned on the dimmed night light. The dim light shone on the skinny but still gentle and peaceful face.
Suddenly, Zhang Wan slowly opened her eyes, and her clear eyes fell on Xu Xian.
Xu Xian was startled for a moment and subconsciously asked, "Mom, did I wake you up?"
"No, I can't sleep." Zhang Wan shook her head slightly. She couldn't bear to let the girl she had raised get married in such a grand manner tomorrow.
The impact of the wedding is stronger than that of the marriage certificate.
"Then I'll sleep with you." Xu Xian turned off the night light, groped his way to the other side of the bed, and lay down beside her.
It had been a long time since she had slept in the same bed with her mother.
Zhang Wan raised her arm with difficulty, pulled the quilt on her body, and gave half to Xu Xian.
"Our darling daughter... is getting married... tomorrow. Mommy is really a little... reluctant to let her go."
"Holding a wedding doesn't mean I'm not your daughter anymore. There's no need to be reluctant. We'll still meet every day until you get tired of me." Xu Xian shrank into her arms, but didn't dare to get too close for fear of pressing down on the equipment on her.
"Okay." Zhang Wan sighed slightly.
How could I be bored with her?
It wasn't that she was reluctant to get married, but she felt that her body was becoming increasingly weak, and a sense of powerlessness was gradually fading away around her.
I watched Xianxian get married with my own eyes and died without any regrets.
You can also describe it to her father later to let him know that she is living a happy life and he doesn't have to worry about her all the time.
The mother and daughter snuggled in the same bed, whispering to each other and reminiscing about the past.
Xu Xian was talking most of the time, and Zhang Wan looked at her gently.
The light is dim at night, and only the outline can be vaguely seen, but it is a blessing to take even one more look before dying.
Seeing that it was getting late, Zhang Wan was worried that she would be tired tomorrow, so she said slowly, "Mom will sing you... a lullaby to comfort you... okay?"
"Yeah, I loved listening to it when I was a kid. I always pestered you to sing it, even daddy couldn't." Xu Xian had a sweet smile on his lips, acting like a spoiled child, his voice extremely soft.
When she was a child, whenever she didn't sleep, her mother would sing a lullaby to soothe her, but this trick didn't work on her father.
Zhang Wan opened her mouth with an unstable breath, and her singing was intermittent, unable to form a complete sentence. However, she sang with all her heart, wanting to leave some precious memories for Xu Xian by her side before she died.
"My dear...go to sleep...quickly. In your dreams...I will be with you..."
Xu Xian, who was lying next to Zhang Wan, did not feel at ease. The intermittent and labored lullaby in his ears seemed to have a hypnotic magic, and he fell asleep unknowingly.
Half asleep and half awake, she felt someone covering her with a blanket and whispering prayers for her to have a worry-free life.
